Chac

  恰克Chacs 外观仿若一头纤细苗条的美洲豹。她们通常四肢着地,但也可能采取双足行进的姿势——在这种情况下,她们看上去很像是 美洲豹兽化人werejaguars。
Chacs look much like slender jaguars. They generally travel on all fours, but they may assume a bipedal stance as well where upon they look much like werejaguars.

  这些精魂帮助操纵着 马兹特克大陆Maztica 的降雨。她们从自己高悬于崇山中的洞穴中,将雨露送到村庄中去。那些罕见有缘一睹恰克的人将注意到泪水不断从她们的脸颊流淌而下。这并非是缘由任何悲伤的情绪,而是这种生物水栖亲和力的表现。
These spirits help control the rains in Maztica. From their cave lairs high in the mountains, they send rain out to the countryside. Those rare people who see a chac will observe tears trickling incessantly down its cheeks. This is not from any kind of sadness, but rather a sign of the creature's aquatic affinities.

  取决于栖息之地,恰克们都与某种特定颜色相关联。那些七夕在马兹特克大陆北部的恰克与蓝色相关,栖息于东部的则是黑色,南部为红色,西部为黄色,中部为绿色。恰克双眸均为对应的颜色,当她们变形为气态时,雾气也将被染成对应颜色。因此,马兹特克南部的恰克的眼睛是红色的,雾气也是红色的。
Chacs are associated with a certain color, depending on where they live. Those in northern Maztica are associated with blue, those in the east with black, those in the south with red, and those in the west with yellow. Chacs in central Maztica are associated with green. A chac's eyes are of the appropriate color, and when one assumes gaseous form the mist is tinted with that same color. Thus, a chac in southern Maztica has red eyes, and its mist is reddish.

战斗COMBAT:

  恰克总是避战,只有在受到威胁、避无可避时方才战斗。她们拥有魔法力量,如果需要,她们会用这些力量保护自己。恰克可如5级 阿祖尔Azul 祭司般施法,但只能施展来来自元素领域于水相关的法术。此外,每周1次,她们还可施展 召唤气象weather summoning,每日4次,气化形态assume gaseous form(如同使用了一剂对应药水)。
Chacs always seek to avoid combat, fighting only if they are threatened and no escape is possible. They possess magical abilities which they will use to protect themselves if need be. A chac can cast spells as if it were a 5th level priest of Azul, but can cast only water-related spells from the elemental sphere. In addition, they can cast weather summoning once per seek, and assume gaseous form (as per the potion) four times per day.

栖息地/社会Habitat/Society:

  这些生物天性平和非暴力,她们喜欢使用自己的魔法力量来控制巢穴附近的天气。虽然她们就像阿祖尔祭司那样使用法术,但其中只有约一半事实上是 雨露的给予者与呼吸的收受者Giver of Rain and Taker of Breath 的祭司。那些直接为阿祖尔服务的个体有邪恶倾向,其中一些会与 雨龙rain dragons(或者说 特拉洛科特尔tlalocoatl)共享巢穴。大多数时候当地土著可以将食物作为礼物安抚恰克,但该种族的邪恶个体(尤其是那些与特拉洛科特尔同栖的)通常为要求某种形式的牺牲。
These creatures are nonviolent by nature, preferring to use their magical powers to govern the weather near their lairs. Though they use spells as if they were priests of Azul, only half are actually servants of the Giver of Rain and Taker of Breath. Those that serve Azul directly have evil tendencies, and some of these share lairs with rain dragons, or tlalocoatl. Most chacs may be appeased by local natives through gifts of food, while evil members of their race, especially those living with tlalocoatls, often demand a sacrifice of some sort.

  如果遇到的恰克超过一只,则通常为一个家庭团体;其中有一位男性、一位女性,以及1~2个后代(各个性别概率相同)。恰克有自己精心设计的交配仪式,包括在气化形态下的精华融合。一年后,小恰克将诞生,附近所有恰克都会参与庆祝,她们将聚集在一起,产生一场倾盆暴雨。
If more than one chac is encountered, it will usually be a family group; with one male, one female, and one or two offspring (equal chance of either sex). Chacs have an elaborate mating ritual, involving merging essences while in gaseous form. The birth of a baby chac takes place a year later, and is often celebrated by all nearby chacs, who gather and produce a tremendous rainstorm.

  恰克的寿命往往很长,有些能够达到100岁以上。年幼的恰克将与父母呆在一起直到成熟(大约需要5年)。恰克的死亡通常伴随着1-4周的干旱,尽管有些干旱的持续时间将更长,或是受到特拉洛科特尔的影响。
Chacs tend to live long lives, some reaching ages of 100 years or more. A young chac stays with its parents until it reaches maturity (about five years). The death of a chac is generally followed by a drought of 1-4 weeks in length while nearby chacs are mourning, though some droughts last longer or are influenced by tlalocoatls.

  恰克异常的羞怯和隐蔽,几乎总是会避免与智慧生物直接接触。她们有太多传说讲述了被人类俘虏的恰克因拒绝按照俘虏者的想法产生雨水,而受到了伤害。如果有恰克被抓,而其他恰克发现了罪犯的身份,她们就会联合彼此的力量对付罪犯,制造洪涝或干旱,直至罪犯释放囚犯、为他们的罪行赎罪。
Chacs are very shy and reclusive, and almost always avoid direct contact with intelligent humanoid life. Too many of their legends tell of chacs being captured by humans and harmed if they refused to produce rain in accordance with the whims of their captors. If a chac is captured, and other chacs find the identities of the offenders, they bring their combined powers to bear on the perpetrators, causing flooding or drought until the offenders release the prisoner and atone for their actions.

生态学ECOLOGY:

  恰克吃多种食物,包括肉类和可可豆,但水是她们的主要营养来源。
Chacs eat a combination of things, including meat and cocoa beans, but water is their main source of nourishment.

  恰克的巢穴中总是囤积着100~1000颗可可豆,她们用这些可可豆生产了一种巧克力饮料,并对这其非常痴迷。她们还会收集艺术品,特别是翡翠和绿松石雕,但很少会收集黄金或其它贵金属。在一座典型的恰克巢穴中包含有价值约200~800金粉笔的艺术品。
Chacs always have a hoard of 100-1000 cocoa beans in their lair, and they use the beans to produce a chocolate drink of which they are very fond. Chacs also collect art objects, especially carved jade and turquoise, but rarely of gold or other metal. A typical chac lair contains art pieces worth 200-800 gq.

  恰克没有天敌,并与所在区域中的多数居民相处融洽。然而雨龙有时会攻击恰克以获得其体内的水分。也有少数发现了恰克的人类有时候会尝试俘虏她,以为这样就能夺取雨水的控制权。
Chacs have no natural enemies, and they get along with most denizens of their areas. However, a rain dragon will sometimes attack a chac to gain the moisture in its body. The rare humans who find chacs will sometimes seek to capture it, thinking to thus gain control over the rains.

  恰克的皮肤可以作为 气化形态药水potions of gaseous form水下呼吸药水potions of sweetwater 的材料,而她们的爪子对某些利爪魔法很有用。
Chac skin may be used as a material component for potions of gaseous form or sweetwater, while their claws are useful for some forms of hishna magic.
